Snoring

Mandy · 03-14-2007, 02:15 AM

My mom bought herself a pair of earplugs, made of silicon. She says they useless, she gave my dad one of those things to stick up hes nose, but thats not working either.
They changed to new pillows, and matrasses, but that didnt help.
Now she gets up at night, and goes and sleeps in the guestroom, she wasnt getting much sleep.

I have such a TERRIBLE time sleeping. And, if you add snoring into the equasion my eyes cross w/ anger.

Plus, hubby in his sleep is great at wacking me w/ his elbow right smack into my face or other parts of my body. OMG - it HURTS!!!

Many times If I haven't fallen asleep w/ in 3 hours of tossing and turning I head to the spare bedroom.

I've been "learning" how to mediate and that has helped somewhat make me fall asleep.

I've also been totally over taking sleeping aids from over the counter. I'm just waiting to make a doc appt. so I can get a prescribed sleeping aid. This way I wont overdose on the over the counter stuff. I've been tripleing the amount so far.

But there are times when I get so exhausted from not sleeping well I become desperate and don't think rationally. So so bad I know.

My ex hubby had sleep amnnea (sp) horribly bad. What is it with men and their bodily functions while sleeping? UGH!

Sleep is soooo precious to me and I crave it. When it's disturbed I'm not always a happy camper.

I couldn't agree more with this statement! LOL! As for snoring, Brendon snores VERY rarely, but he always seems to do it when I have a big test or something important to do the next day. Murphy's Law I guess... lol

My hubby snores too and if he's got a cold or something, he actually SNORTS in his sleep. It's then that I end up on the couch. I know he can't help it, but that doesn't mean I have to lay there and listen to him!

We spend some of our Sunday afternoons relaxing in the living room watching movies and it never fails that my husband stretches out in his recliner and starts snoring. The girls and I get pretty upset over it because he's pretty loud and trying to get him to move to the bedroom is almost impossible. He never realizes that he's snoring!!!! It's very annoying!!

I know that he snores at night (I do to probably) but I sleep pretty soundly so it doesn't bother me.

My husband has started smacking when he eats or chews gum. Now if you want to talk about something that is annoying........

Sorry you all are going through it too, but I'm glad I'm not the only one. I can't really go to another room unless it's the couch. I'm always afraid I won't wake up in time for the bus route. I suppose I could go buy another alarm clock, but I just didn't want an alarm clock in my family room. Like I said, soon as we can get another mattress (we have the bed frame) then he's getting another room. I'll bring my computer and dogs into my room.
